Blimey. Still haven’t finished the campaign. Seems to have been expanded quite a bit since my first run through it, way back when. (I’m not even sure if engineers were in the game when I first played. If they were, I don’t remember using them – which is odd, as I’m relying on them heavily now.)

Picked this up when it came out, played through the campaign in about twenty minutes, didn’t touch it again. I must have liked it a fair bit, though, because I’ve kept it on my phone. (I think it was Christmas last year that I played it, which would explain why I don’t seem have blogged about it before.)
Anyway, it’s had lots of updates since then and a spin-off/sequel has been announced, so I thought I’d take another look. I’ve been going through the campaign on Medium difficulty and it’s really very good indeed. You need a quick finger and a quick brain. There are plenty of games where you create troops and have them march left to right across a map, but the care that’s gone into this game make it stand out – I assume there’s been a fair amount of balancing over the months since release.
